Sean Dyche had rubbished suggestions that no points and no goals from the first two games of the season constituted a crisis at Everton. Well, they are in one now.
The Wolves substitute Sasa Kalajdzic scored an 87th-minute winner moments after being introduced to deliver his club’s first points of the campaign. Everton have lost their opening three matches for the first time in 33 years and, once again, have only themselves to blame. As was the case against Fulham, another winnable home match against modest opposition disintegrated into another avoidable defeat after Dyche’s side squandered a host of chances.
